| contents | Selecting the right monitoring level in Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) systems for e-healthcare is crucial for balancing patient outcomes, various resources, and patient's quality of life. A prior work has used one-dimensional health representations, but patient health is inherently multidimensional and typically consists of many measurable physiological factors. In this paper, we introduce a multidimensional health state model within the RPM framework and use dynamic programming to study optimal monitoring strategies. Our analysis reveals that the optimal control is characterized by switching curves (for two-dimensional health states) or switching hyper-surfaces (in general): patients switch to intensive monitoring when health measurements cross a specific multidimensional surface. We further study how the optimal switching curve varies for different medical conditions and model parameters. This finding of the optimal control structure provides actionable insights for clinicians and aids in resource planning. The tunable modeling framework enhances the applicability and effectiveness of RPM services across various medical conditions. |
